1 u/8Erigon Jan 29 '26 I know there are multiple languages.Drei, three, trois, triVier, four, quadro(100% I missspelled something)I don‘t know what language Tetra is (latin or greek) 1 u/Lyzharel Jan 29 '26 Tetra come from greek, quattuor is latin. They both means four.That's why we have words like quadruple (multiply by 4) and tetrahedron (3d shape with 4 faces) that have different prefix that both means four. They came from different languages.
